Nintendo releases new videos of upcoming Legend of Zelda game, Breath of the Wild

This week, Japanese gaming company Nintendo made some significant announcements, much to the delight of Nintendo fans.

Nintendo released a brief announcement video for its much-anticipated new console codenamed NX - which has now got an official name, the 'Nintendo Switch' console - along with new videos of its forthcoming Legend of Zelda game, Breath of the Wild.

The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild game is expected to launch sometime in 2017, both for the new Nintendo Switch console, as well as the older Wii U console. The new videos released by Nintendo for the game mainly pivot around the game's setting.

In order to give the viewers of the Breath of the Wild videos a 360-degree preview of the new Zelda world, the videos show Link standing on mountains or hang-gliding through the air.

In addition, the new Breath of the Wild videos also show off a number of other in-game features, including Link's ability to cook food, snowboard or fire arrows in slow-motion. The videos of the game are visually stunning and have a highly impressive soundtrack.
